    Despite the weather being really wet and windy, we found plenty to do from the door and always looked forward to coming back to the apartment. It was surprisingly more spacious than we thought, and we liked the modern (but still really cosy!) approach to the decor. The place was really clean, and you wouldn't tell a dog had stayed there if, like us you don't have a pet. The only thing that we could possibly think of suggesting as an improvement is a washing machine, but we managed a week without and just made sure we packed plenty of kit. The bed was also incredibly comfortable which is a rarity in holiday rentals - this place is really a gem! Would 100% recommend.

    The apartment is comfortable, well equipped, has beautiful views and a really great energy l, we didn't want to leave!! It is just an absolutely wonderful place. The only issue we had is on the Saturday night, the evening we ate at the property and stayed in to watch a film the electricity kept tripping out and all of the sockets would go off. It seemed to rectify itself after an hour or so, but it might be worth looking into. We will definitely be back next year!!

  • Mrs

    It is extremely spacious and the kitchen is very well equipped other than perhaps a crash helmet for the roof beam! The water pressure is very good which is great for both the separate shower or lovely stand alone bath where you can relax and recuperate from any strenuous walks undertaken. I would have no hesitation in returning or recommending to others. Thank you.
